806 My true name is far too ugly (1/2)
His own half-hearted refusal seemed far too shameless to Seiji.
He was immediately embarrassed after saying it. But then, he felt, why not? 'I'm a scumbag man who started a harem anyways!'
Well, he decided against saying anything else and played some cards…
One hour later, Seiji's cell phone rang.
Seiji was currently shuffling cards, but his expression instantly changed. He put away the cards and then answered the call.
”It really was so difficult.” Kamitani sighed. ”I used just about every favor I could in order to arrange this face-to-face meeting for you. My bro Haruta, you'd better use this opportunity well. Don't waste all of my hard work. Not only that, he's not in a good mood right now. If what you say doesn't satisfy him, it's highly likely that he'll directly attack you. He's strong, really strong. You might even die.”
”Stop saying such useless things,” Seiji stated coldly. ”What time and what place?”
”I've already worked so hard, so as my friend, you won't even console me a little?” Kamitani acted like he was complaining.
”You've worked hard. I'll invite you to some tea.”
”Only tea?”
”I can change it to coffee.”
”I prefer beer, along with some food that goes well with beer!”
”Sure. Give me a mailing address and I'll send you some beer.”
”You won't drink together with me!?”
”I'm still underage and can't drink alcohol yet.” Seiji acted all serious.
Kamitani was rendered speechless.
Even for someone as sly as him, he couldn't think of a comeback to this.
”Time and place? Hurry and tell me already.” Seiji didn't care one bit about what expression Kamitani had right now. He kept urging Kamitani to get to the point.
”The time is in half an hour. The place is…” Kamitani told him a location, then paused for a moment. ”You'd better not betray us, my bro Haruta.”
”Of course I won't. You'd better not set a trap for me, Kamitani-kun.”
After that, Seiji hung up and looked at Shika and the others.
”I'm going out now.”
”Please be careful, Brother,” Shika told him.
Mika and Chiaki didn't say anything. However, their expressions said the same.
”I will.” Seiji smiled.
Half an hour later, in the city.
Seiji was now fully equipped in his combat attire. He arrived at the location that Kamitani told him, an abandoned factory.
Weeds were growing all over, the walls were filthy, the lighting was dim, and there was abandoned machinery and garbage everywhere… It all seemed so desolate.
Seiji had often seen such places before on television and in movies. These locations were often used for negotiations, shady deals, meetings, fights, murders, kidnappings, or imprisonment… nothing good.
Seiji cautiously walked into the factory and looked around. He found nobody.
It seemed that Voidfire hadn't arrived yet.
Should he make some preparations then?
Just as he thought this, Seiji rejected the idea.
Voidfire might arrive at any moment. It would look bad if Seiji was in the middle of preparing something like a trap when he arrived. Besides, what could Seiji even prepare?
Seiji had come here to talk, not fight.
He didn't bother with checking anything else in the factory. Seiji found an old chair that was barely still in working condition and sat down.
